Vehicle and control method thereof
First Claim
1. A vehicle configured to share a captured image with another vehicle, the vehicle comprising:
- a first camera configured to capture the image;
a first display;
a speed sensor configured to sense a speed of the vehicle;
a distance sensor configured to sense a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the vehicle and a first vehicle immediately ahead of the vehicle;
a transceiver configured to implement data communication between the vehicle and the first vehicle; and
a processor configured to control the first camera, the first display, the distance sensor, the speed sensor and the transceiver,wherein the processor is further configured to;
determine a state of the vehicle based on the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance,display a first image captured by the first camera on the first display when the vehicle is in a first state, wherein the first state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a first speed and less than a second speed, and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than a first distance and less than a second distance,display a second image captured by a second camera on the first display when the vehicle is in a second state, wherein the second state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than the second speed, and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than the second distance, anddisplay the first image on the first display and the second image on the second display when the vehicle-to-vehicle-distance is repeatedly increased and reduced within a predetermined time on the first distance or the second distance,wherein the second camera unit is a camera installed in a second vehicle, the second vehicle being any one of one or more vehicles ahead of the vehicle.

Abstract
Disclosed is a vehicle, which senses a speed of the vehicle using a speed sensor unit and also senses a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the vehicle and a first vehicle immediately ahead of the vehicle using a distance sensor unit and then determines a state of the vehicle based on the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance. In this case, when the vehicle is in a first state, the vehicle displays a first image captured by a first camera unit on a first display unit. In addition, when the vehicle is in a second state, the vehicle displays a second image captured by a second camera unit on the first display unit. Here, the second camera unit is a camera unit stalled in a second vehicle, and the second vehicle being any one of one or more vehicles ahead of the vehicle.

18. A control method of a vehicle, the vehicle being configured to share a captured image with another vehicle, the control method comprising:
-
sensing a speed of the vehicle using a speed sensor; sensing a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the vehicle and a first vehicle immediately ahead of the vehicle using a distance sensor; determining a state of the vehicle based on the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance; displaying a first image captured by a first camera on a first display when the vehicle is in a first state, wherein the first state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a first speed and less than a second speed, and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than a first distance and less than a second distance; and displaying a second image captured by a second camera on the first display when the vehicle is in a second state, wherein the second state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a second speed and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than the second distance; and displaying the first image on the first display and the second image on the second display when the vehicle-to-vehicle-distance is repeatedly increased and reduced within a predetermined time on the first distance or the second distance, wherein the second camera is a camera installed in a second vehicle, and the second vehicle being any one of one or more vehicles ahead of the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (19)
